An integrative approach to skin allergies combines natural remedies with medication to help with itching and infection as we give the pet’s body time to heal. Control what you can, first, we should always make sure our pets do not have mites or fleas. We should also eliminate any foods from the diet that we know our pets have reacted to in the past. Adjust your pet’s diet, stress also influences intestinal bacteria, abnormal bacterial flora can cause leaky gut syndrome, which allows molecules that would not normally be allowed to pass into the body to get in. In a naturopathic approach to atopy, the gut needs to be dealt with, even in pets without a diagnosed food allergy, this often starts with a diet trial of home-cooked food. Adding probiotics can help normalize gut bacteria and promote gut healing as well. Consider complementary therapies, a naturopathic approach to allergies and skin disease often includes supplements like flaxseed oil, fish oil, B vitamins or zinc, as well as antioxidants like green tea and vegetables.

Daily antihistamines can also be useful. However, it’s likely that your vet will suggest some or all of the following: Feed them a diet specially designed for sensitive skin. Avoid your dog’s triggers If you know what your dog is allergic to, it’s best to try to avoid those factors as much as possible. Regularly de-flea them. Avoid walking them when the pollen count is high. Avoid walking them in long grass. Vacuum and dust regularly.
